Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Being a bus driver is a challenging and demanding job. From maintaining the safety of both drivers and passengers to having good driving skills and being physically fit, there is a lot to do. Women, in particular, may face more challenges as bus drivers due to gender stereotypes, safety concerns, and maintaining a work-life balance. But breaking all these barriers, seven women in Thimphu chose to become city bus drivers. In this story, we will look at the life of Ugyen Lhaden, one of the new city bus drivers in Thimphu.
